it ends in blueberry muffins

it’s been a while since i’ve been on the blog, but it’s because my grandfather passed away.

i haven’t had words or inspiration to share.

it happened at 10:20 pm march 16th.

he just took his last breath, at home, in his bed, on her side.

he had been sick & in pain for some time, so we all knew it was coming.

but you can never prepare yourself for what you will go through when losing a loved one.

it knocks you on your knees, it floods through your eyes and it hurts your heart.

but he is in a better place.

he is still with us, though.

he proved it when all the grandkids were sitting around talking in grandparents living room after the visitation and all of a sudden the light flickered off…and none of us had touched it & we were all there to witness it. it was the weirdest feeling & it could have been a coincidence, but i think we all felt his presence.

he was the best man i have ever known.

a true example of what a gentleman, a great husband and the most wonderful grandfather in the world should be!

since the funeral, i have been spending time with family (cousins flew in from tennessee, michigan and austin), working training at my new job & trying to strengthen my relationship with dek. the move here has been a bit stressful on our marriage, but seeing as we have such a great relationship we can just talk about what’s bothering the other person and vow to work on it and to make a change. that’s what we did the other day and we had wondered why we hadn’t talked sooner. communication really is key.
